I have now got my cerbera back from webbs and they had put new plugs in to cure the misfire.
It has been running great the last couple of days, but then this morning on the way to work it started misfiring again. (from anything under 3000rpm it hesitates) My route to that point was all stop start slow country lane stuff, so once on the dual carriageway I gave it a boot full and the misfire seemed to clear! But once back in the town traffic I'm sure the misfire is back!
Could it be this Valve guide / rings problem webbs is on about? (They say £5000 to fix!) Joolz doesn’t think so! And have seen no blue smoke either! Checked oil level as webbs topped it up and it seemed slightly over the max mark on the dip stick, could this be causing it? Maybe I should pop it down to my closest TVR dealer David Hendry in malmesbury Wiltshire, would they be able to plug a laptop in and find the problem or something? what do you think?

Only when I first turn the ignition on, but not when engines running.

It was webbs.. and they say there was no probs before, so I guess it's all happened in the 100 or so miles I've had it!!!!

Thanks guys! It's been running like a dream this morning!
So maybe it just needed to stretch it's legs!
Anyway got it booked into David Hendry on Thursday for them to give it the once over and reassure me that it is 100%! Will let you know how it goes.
